Worrying about ultrasound & dates

Only 4+3 with DC2 so super early days.

We had sex on the 22nd & 26th June. The 26th was the predicted day of ovulation.

With DC1, I had an 8 week scan which showed the due date as 13th Feb but when I had the 12 week scan, the due date was changed to the 11th. DD was super overdue it doesn’t matter anyway! And she was conceived on holiday where we dtd every day.

I’m worried in case this will happen again as I’m worried DH is going to think the baby isn’t his (it very much is!)

Has anyone had an ultrasound scan and the dates not changed? I think my due date atm is 19th March based on first day of last period.

Mine is wrong, I know my ovulation dates, I'm pretty sure we didn't have sex when the scan would suggest I ovulated, and I definitely didn't have sex with anyone else! Baby has now been shown to be on the large side so she probably was at the 12 week scan, hence the wrong date. But even mentioning to DH that the dates seem wrong with when we had sex, he trusts me and suggested we either had sex and I forgot to log it in my app or the scan date is wrong. Smile

Mine was a week out. I conceived way earlier than i thought. It made sense though looking at my chart.

As people have said though, this isn't the point. Unless you suddenly find that you're about a month or two ahead (and even so that doesn't have to mean anything) there wouldn't but be any cause for concern.

It is a weird thing to worry about especially as you seem totally blind, even blaming yourself. No good man should put someone so on edge like this just cos of a few days being out.

Firstly, he'd have to be pretty thick. The
reproductive system is not a mystery, you can read about it on the internet how it works so ignorance is no excuse.

Secondly, unless you have had a history of cheating on him to immediately jump to that kind of conclusion shows some kind of controlling jealous behaviour.

You probably don't want to listen to this, it's obviously normalised to you. But i hope you're thinking about what people have to say here!

My dates put me due on the 5th, scan shows the 13th. DH deffo doesn’t think It’s not his..... the dates are just out (I pretty certain my dates are accurate still tho hahah). I’m totally sure it wouldn’t even cross his mind!!
